Public bug reported:
DHCP client is sending discover with Unicast type request for the offer, in
this configuration of IB to ETH through a relay we need the type to be
broadcast.
The issue is that when using dhclient from the client on Ubuntu (and only on
Ubuntu) with MOFED or inbox driver, we see that that DHCP server offers in
unicast instead of broadcast. It seems there is no way to correct this from the
client side using dhclient configuration file.
this issue exist even when we use always-broadcast statement in configuration
file.
in other vendors we see that discover request type is broadcast.
attached pcap files from working (other vendor) and not working (Ubuntu)
clients.
